And have that mask and and its accompanying cheek guards ever been published anywhere? It seems that these Kalkriese type masks are popping up all over the place (there was another in the second Guttmann collection auction) but I have never seen a proper write up of any, apart from the one Robinson featured. At times I fear that the eighteenth century habit of looting objects and selling them for private display to people who thought that possession in some way equalled intelligence is now completely out of control and that 'reputable' auction houses do little more than stimulate destruction and ignorance. Perhaps Celer might have something to say here.<br>
